Wrath of Dagon

Interesting article about jam and game reviews: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/30138/A...on_With_Jam.php I agree with that, IMO people get too worked up over certain features, instead of evaluating the experience as a whole.

If you disable that pop-up, wouldn't it make it easier for viruses to take over?

Personally I think almost all of Obsidian's gamers are discernible without a magnifying glass.

My understanding is that type of behavior is common in the Middle East.

Doesn't work if you misspell it, sorry.

Chainmail apron, that has to be a first.

Well, I'll certainly sleep better knowing the Keystone Kops are on the job.

They explained that everything looks clean because the zombie apocalypse has just begun.

What's the industry worried about? That kids won't be able to buy games the industry itself (dishonestly) says they shouldn't play?

I remember how we were having this discussion on Bioware forums 3 years ago. Ah, good times.

Again, when you buy games, you don't buy property like a house or a car. You buy the use of someone else's intellectual property. It's not fully yours, for example it's illegal to copy it and sell it to someone else. So long as you get it on a physical medium, you can resell that medium. If all they sell you is a license, like digital distribution, then you can't resell the license. That's all there's to it.

I'm sorry, you're not making any sense.

Most of the world cultures have been polygamous for the vast majority of time, including ancient Egyptians and Chinese, way predating Jews. Of course may be you were joking.

Because they're not selling a transferrable license. Most people will not utilize the servers 100%. If the game keeps getting transferred, that means much higher utilization of the servers in reality, something the publisher is not compensated for. Thus they have a right to charge extra for the transfers. There's no reason a publisher should be obligated to sell a transferrable license to their game. They could very well sell a single user license (as is commonly done with other software) and they'd be on solid legal and ethical ground.

Explain to me why you think a company should maintain their servers for you even though you haven't paid them one cent? Unless it specifically states that online rights are transferable when the game was bought new, they have no such obligation.

Since you seem to be against it, I was wondering if you think it's constitutionally protected or not.

Seems like a simple question, what's not clear about it?

Especially since Amazon usually sells with a big discount, not tax and free shipping. May not work if you have to have it on day 1 though.

Don't forget our ally Pakistan's ISI, the best resource of all.

@Hurlshot You're not implying there's no Constitutional right to a polygamous marriage, are you?

With a name like "Fisto", it would have to be.
